Brazil's Congress to decide fate of Lower House leader

Brazil's Congress is in the process of deciding whether Lower House President Severino Cavalcanti should be ejected for allegedly accepting bribes from a catering company in 2002-3. Though not a member of Lula's Partido Trabalhador, he is a supporter of the government and his ouster will be a blow to the administration. (Financial Times)
